Rush Limbaugh's Morning Update: Libs are Libs
Well, look at this, folks. Students nationwide are enjoying their annual break (except, of course, for the poor schlubs forced to go to summer skrool; I never had to do that, thank goodness). But nevertheless, there's education news. We have two items from overseas.
First up: A British high skrool student, asked to describe the room that he was sitting in as part of his "English" exam paper, used just two words to complete the assignment. The first was the "F bomb", followed by the word "off." A senior examiner, Peter Buckroyd (the guy who grades the exams), awarded this student points... two points, out of possible 27. Buckroyd said: "It would be wicked to give it a zero, because it does show some very basic skills we are looking for... like conveying some meaning... and some spelling." Buckroyd said that the kid would have gotten a higher mark if he had given his "F- off" some punctuation, like an exclamation point.
Next item. In Lund, Sweden, an 8-year-old student was handing out birthday party invitations in class when skrool administrators seized and confiscated the items. The reason? They said the skrool had "a duty to ensure against discrimination." The student's father later admitted that his evil 8-year-old kid did exclude two of his classmates from the invitation list -- one was a kid who had bullied him; the other was a kid who had a party and didn't invite him.
So, no matter where they live -- anywhere in the world -- liberals are going to be liberals. And if you learn nothing else... please learn that.
